Unfortunately it's not nearly that simple.  APM fares worse than ACPI;
just closing the lid kills the machine.  I've filed bug 125458 with
all the details:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=125458

Note that this has significant bearing on fedora-test: kernel
2.6.6-1.422 made things measurably worse than 2.6.5-1.358.  Running
358, I can actually do an ACPI S3 sleep and resume from it, but the
graphics are completely dead.  422 just hangs hard at suspend time.

I think I tried all twelve possible combinations of kernel
(2.6.5-1.358, 2.6.6-1.422), ACPI/APM, and running X/running X but
switched to VT1/not running X.
